Out of curiousity when did it change?  I've always put the local header 
after the music.

I looked at 10.3.1 and agree that the "music expression must come before 
the |\header|." instruction is there. 

While I was there I see that the example says:

title = "title"  % not printed

and yet the example below shows "title" not "Title" or "New title" 

The manual keeps getting better and better!
Thanks for all your work on this.
